Arrived Llangollen Basin on Saturday, for 2 nights. We had a great 2 days and on Sunday Mick, Finlay and myself walked the 2 miles to Horseshoe Falls.  It was a lovley walk, and the weather was very good to us.

Finlay tried a drink out of his new hiking dog bowl.  That seemed to work.


Went in to a local butcher and bought some welsh lamb for lunch.  COR. That was so good and so tender, and then I heard bleating!....... and I just put a bit more mint sauce on my plate.  SORRY. 

K&J+2, decided to bbq  .As well as Breezy the Dalmatian, they have Scooby( not to be confused with our chum, Scooby. He’s a bloke, married to Rita Rose and has a narrowboat called Festina Lente), who is 12 months old, he is a cockerpoo or is that a Poodlecock?, has a really bad haircut and looks like Rolf off The Muppets .  (No, sorry, still cannot be confused with Scooby, well. Ooh I dunno know).

HOWEVER, Scooby was whistled and made a mad dash from his NB, and misjudged the distance, and ended up in the water.  Didn’t seem to bother him
 Next time we come here, we know to moor in a different place to get the most of the scenery. We couldn't see a blinking thing. !!!!




 BBQ time and Finlay has stopped snarling at Scooby.  finally.. 

 Finlay has the wind in his ears as we cross back over to ENGLAND. !!!!

I just had an early bath. !!!!   but I ain't bothered.


Now on our way to the head of The Montgomery Canal, and on the way, we managed to pick up a manky old blanket in the prop. Well, if we are going up The Rochdale Canal we had better get used to that.
